Just finished Halo 3.
What a load of BS. I mean the ending and all was better than Halo 2. The campaign was better than Halo 2. It felt more Halo 1 than 2, and it came full circle.
BUT
Where was the frickin' huge battle the big advertising campaign is all about (John 117 Monument). I totally thought the game would end with that epic battle. Halo's version of the Battle of Helm's Deep. No where to be found.
What do we get instead. The game back ends with the 2 worst levels of the game (I hate the flood) and the last game play sequence is basically the same race with the warthog end game we got with Halo 1 (which is fine and fun), and decent ending that leaves the franchise open to more games, books, movies, etc.
Anyways, the multi-player is rock solid, and I love the Forge, so I'm going to get a lot of mileage out of the whole package.
Just the moral of the story, if you're gonna build up this huge battle and not execute, then why build it up at all?
